Experience & Qualifications

Introduction:

Hello lovely families! I'm Alice (28yo) from the UK - a naturally caring, calm yet outgoing individual with lots of energy and a passion for being creative with children. I love engaging them in fun and imaginative activities, helping them learn and grow in an enjoyable and supportive environment. I am also very active and love the outdoors—my hobbies include hiking, skiing, horse riding, reading, and art. Having recently transitioned to private online tutoring full-time, I am excited about the opportunity to combine my love for childcare with my passion for the mountains and outdoor activities. Providing a safe, fun, and enriching experience for children in this unique setting is something I truly look forward to!
Qualifications:

I am a qualified primary teacher with a PGCE from the UK and over three years of experience teaching in international schools. In addition to my teaching career, I have extensive childcare experience through roles as an au pair, nanny, and babysitter, as well as caring for younger siblings and cousins. This background has equipped me with the skills to design engaging, age-appropriate activities while fostering a safe and nurturing environment.
Experience:

I have worked with children aged 2 to 12 in nurseries, primary schools, and private childcare settings. As a teacher, I have managed classes of up to 18 children, developing strong leadership skills and the ability to adapt to diverse learning needs and cultural backgrounds. My experience extends beyond the classroom, where I have created fun, interactive learning experiences that support both educational development and emotional well-being. Whether in a structured school setting or an informal childcare role, I am dedicated to providing high-quality care and fostering positive relationships that help children thrive.

"Alice is a wonderful nanny, a real natural with children. She has a lovely way about her, super warm-hearted and good fun, well-organised and great at structuring the day's activities away from screen-time. She was perfect in every way with my 12 yr old son, disciplined but always kind. I felt reassured knowing she had a primary school teaching qualification: she had lots of educational games and engaging ideas up her sleeve for rainy days! I was completely comfortable leaving my son with Alice for extended periods: she is mature and sensible, flexible when plans change, and in unforseen events will make the right decision with my child's interest at heart. A top nanny whom I recommend one hundred percent! "

"It is with great pleasure that I recommend Alice Hookway for any role involving the care and education of children. Alice is an incredibly kind, empathetic, and reliable individual who has a natural gift for working with children. Our children absolutely adored her and were genuinely sad to say goodbye. She is wonderfully grounded and clear-headed, with experience supporting children from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. Her impeccable English accent and clear manner of speaking make her easy to understand, and she has a special ability to engage children in both educational and creative activities. Beyond her warmth and dependability, Alice is also highly artistic and imaginative, which adds an extra dimension to her interactions with children, making learning both fun and inspiring. Any family or employer would be lucky to have her.
